The history of full colour printing

As one can expect, colour printers derives from a long and enthralling history. First used in Asia, and then Europe, colour printing dates back to the 13th century. Soon afterwards, the Europeans got on board and further developed techniques for colour printing. It certainly was not a mainstreamed process back then that we know today, as each colour printing involved numerous Print runs, one for each colour used. Could you ever imagine the time investment this required for each printing project? Luckily for their clients, Minuteman Press Germiston makes use of the latest technology in their operations!

The 19th century saw various new methods and advancements in colour printing developed in Europe. One of the most popular methods was what would become known as chromolithography, which through mechanical colour separation reduced the number of print runs per print to only three. This was a huge step forward to bringing the magic of colour printing to the masses, and making it accessible to more mainstream markets.
